I am so slow lately. I announced the winner of last weeks drawing on my facebook page and now I need to let you know what the prize will be for this week.
This quilt was one of my first designs and one of the most popular. I think it is the fabric that makes the quilt. It is called Color Bridge.

Invite your friends to “Like” my facebook page and you will be entered in the drawing for the pattern. I will have maybe three more weeks of drawings or until the wee one comes.

On another note, I have been wanting to share some of the quilts that were done by some other designers using my SMUP ruler.
This little gem was done by Peggy Welchert in Kentucky.

This little quilt top measures 12″ x 15″. It was made with charm pack (5″ squares) fabric and my SMUP ruler. If you watched the SMUP video part 2 you might have seen a glimpse of this quilt top in the video.

Peggy wrote that as she was working on the project, things got busy and she was not able to put on the borders. I love this little tree and I hope to get it finished.
You can read more about Peggy on her blog. She is a busy gal, taking care of her parents.

Peggy’s comments about the ruler:
“I really enjoyed working with the Square Me Up ruler. It is a unique way to use all of a 5″ square or a 10″ square of fabric to make multiple half square triangles at the same time with minimal marking and no paper to rip off.
I only used 5″ squares of fabric. I did find that a soft pencil, like a chalk pencil, is best to use as directed”

She also made some additional comments on things that she would like to see in the ruler, like adding more lines and we made most of the changes that were suggested to us before producing our final ruler.

I really appreciate the time she took to experiment with the ruler. I will be sharing the comments and project of some other designers who played with the ruler for me during my crunch time right before market.

See you soon!
